Hi, Recently I've been having trouble starting my 2003 L322 because the ignition key wont turn in the lock. I was just getting clicking noises from the steering column when putting the key in the ignition. After a load of research I found that it was possible to reset the imobiliser by removing...

I have a bmw bluetooth ulf that I fitted to my Range Rover Vogue (2003). It didn't work with my Motorola Moto G phone but worked fine with my older ZTE blade. I'm told it should work with all iphones up to iphone 4. You have to rewire the 54 pin plug to use it but there are guides to do this on...

I couldn't find a guide on changing a front wing either on the forum or in RAVE. So having just done it I thought I'd give a brief summary on how I did it. 1. Jack up the car and remove the front wheel. 2. Remove the mudflap if fitted and then remove the plastic underarch cover which is held...

Hi My P38 was difficult to hot start when I had it (5 years ago) so I fitted the timed hot start kit. Last year I had some problems starting when it had been stood for a while so changed the leak offs to silicon ones and added a non return valve and all was well. I also changed the glow plugs...

Would prefer a removable towball one, but anything considered.

Hi, my P38 has decided to stay in access mode no matter what I ask it for. The access mode light is permanently on and the height requested flashes for ever. The compressor is NOT running. I have checked that the compressor will run by removing the relay under the bonnet and using a piece of...

Hi, Have searched the forums but can't find anything the same as my heater problem. If I have the heater on 22 both sides the temperature keeps on going up so eventually you have to open the windows! If you lower the temperature the fan speed seems to slow down, but the air coming out of the...

Thought I'd post my experience of fitting one of the e-bay parking sensor kits on my P38. The display unit that has a sounder, a distance display and a L / R indicator was put on the top of the steering column cover. This isnt perfect as the steering wheel blocks the distance display when your...

When I was changing the driver side rear air spring I noticed a pipe that was just forward of the top the air spring. It was a black plastic coated metal pipe that looked like it was going towards the diesel tank. It literally fell off when I touched it (about 9 inches of it) and it had...

Strong smell of oil today on the drive home from work. Opened the bonnet and there is no oil filler cap and oil is everywhere. Must have loosened it when I changed the spill off pipes on the weekend. Anyone got know where to get one or is it a main dealer part :( .

Hi, my landy has just started slipping out of 4th gear occasionally. No horrible noises or anything. Anybody got any idea of what it could be? Cheers, Dave.

I am restoring a 1967 Series 3 and about to install the rear wiring harness. The multiway connector at the front has 6 wires, 4 of them go to the rear lights for side, brake, lh indicator, rh indicator and 2 branch off near the front. The 2 that branch off are Green/Black and White/Green. The...

Hi, I'm restoring a 1967 Series 2a and have come to the stage where I want to refit the wiring harness. Has anyone got any photos or articles that show the engine bay wiring harness? I am having some trouble identifying what wires go where. Any photos to [email protected] please.

Hi I have a 1997 P38 DSE. When I turn off the ignition and remove the key then open the front door, the message centre says the ignition key is in. This then means that I can't use the remote to lock it. I use the key and get a double beep (shriek) from the alarm. I can open it using the...

Hi, Whenever I shut the engine off on my 1997 p38 dse I get 5 beeps. There are no error messages showing anywhere. Can anyone tell me what it may be?

Hi, when I turn off the ignition and remove the keys I get 5 beeps and no messages anywhere. Does anyone know what the 5 beeps mean?

It feels as though my 300tdi is running on 3 cylinders when accelerating from 1800 rpm to about 2500 rpm. It feels worst in 2nd gear when pulling hard up hill. Its not so apparent in the higher gears and doesn't seem to affect the performance very much. Any idea where I should start to look...

The interior light doesnt work from the driver door only. I have found that the wire to the door switch is broken, but, I can't locate the wire. Does anyone know the route this wire takes so that I can find an end and renew it. I know it is purple and blue or possibly purple and white and it...
